The Kingdom of God

Of A Truth, The Government is Upon His Majestic Shoulders

I have recently been stirred in my spirit about the Kingdom of God. What the scripture says about it and the truth it reveals. What has fascinated and made me so excited is the knowledge of the truth. That by the precious blood of Jesus and the saving grace of God that was extended to us- the redeemed of the LORD, we have the great privilege of being partakers of this kingdom

What kind of kingdom are we talking about here? Is it the kingdom of this world? Is the political, religious or royal dynasties and governments of this world? I perceive not.

During Jesus's trial, He told Pilate that His kingdom is not of this world.

"Jesus said, My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is from another place."- John 18:36

His, is the kingdom of heaven, the kingdom that was birth direct from heaven without earthly origin, source or foundation. The kingdom that was before time began and would be after time. The kingdom that has no beginning or end.

"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven."- Matthew 6:9&10

Scripture tells us prophetically that the government will be upon the shoulders of Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God. And the increase of His government and peace will have no end, He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom (See Isaiah 9:6&7).

Scripture clearly shows us that this heavenly kingdom, government, rule and reign of God will have earthly dominion, rule and reign over all man-made kingdoms and nations of this world.

"For the kingdom is the LORD’s, and He rules over the nations."- Psalm 22:28 (NKJV)

"The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever."- Revelation 11:15b

His Kingdom shall be an advancing and ever-increasing Kingdom. Righteousness, peace and joy shall be the eternal foundation of His throne and kingdom; a Kingdom of un-ending rejoicing and celebration.

"For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit"- Romans 14:17

God's throne, reign, rule, dominion and authority will be for ever and ever; His kingdom is ever-lasting from age to age, from one generation to another. His kingdom stands forever, it cannot be shaken, overthrown or defeated.

"Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom."- Psalm 45:6

The LORD is our Judiciary (The Judge), The LORD is our Legislature (The Law-giver), The LORD is our Executive (The King of kings). He will judge, He will legislate, He will rule over all nations forever in majesty, honour and glory. Of a truth, the government in heaven above, on earth below and beneath the earth is upon His Majestic shoulders. He is the Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Ever-lasting Father, the Prince of Peace. What a Wonderful God He is! What an Awesome Kingdom!

"Look upon Zion, the city of our festivals; your eyes will see Jerusalem, a peaceful abode, a tent that will not be moved; its stakes will never be pulled up, nor any of its ropes broken. For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; it is he who will save us."- Isaiah 33:20&22

Oh what a joy to know that we belong to this majestic kingdom; what a great delight to know that we have been rescued into this awesome kingdom. What a huge satisfaction and immense gratitude to God that the precious blood of the Lamb that was slain before the foundation of the world has made us legal citizens, redeemed and bona-fide partakers of this eternal kingdom.

"Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."- Colossians 1:12-14

What depth of excitement, thanks and praises to God Almighty for making us share in the inheritance and blessings of His glorious kingdom through Christ Jesus our LORD, King, Master and Saviour. To Him alone be all the glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

That's why we need to spread the gospel everywhere, so everyone can know about it, God doesn't want people to miss out on the opportunity, but only the righteous will reign with Christ, God the son and serve him, will be changed to divine, no longer of flesh and blood, the wicked would be slain by Jesus's brightness. People who think that he's coming to re-educate the world or it's just a metaphor or christians gettin raptured to heaven can't be trusted, unscriptual, or that he'll never return. It's just the lies of Satan, because he's the father of lies like Jesus said(John 8:44), he's also the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience(Ephesians 2:1-3) he's partially restrained for now, that's why we are not to hesitate or show no mercy to him, only on our fellow men. God is light, in him, there's no darkness(I John 1:5). DON'T BE DECEIVED. Please pray that everybody will open the door of their lives for Christ, so he can return to liberate the world from the dark forces. He will also wake the redeemed dead to an everlasting life. They are not floating around in heaven like most people think, read on 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17. Satan, who was a former angel of God and formally named as Lucifer was jealous of God because of his beautiness and pride, and his buddies, now demons joined him in rebellion against God and his army and Lucifer and his friends were thrown down to earth, and they're still here today, that's why we are to pray that everyone will be born of the creator, so he can send his son to get rid of those pukes, so we can finally worship and serve the messiah in peace, and he will take over, because the world belongs to him, not his enemy. It was a mistake from Adam and Eve, the first 2 humans for givin it to him, it was not God's idea.
